First you were at a week and now your down to a day.

I said the same thing from the beginning.

I said it would take *him* a week, if he were not very experienced with Java. But it sounds like *I* could do it in a day or two.

You didn't read his posts, and now you aren't reading mine.

I submit *you* are the one trying so hard to 'stick by your guns' that you're backpeddling.

You claimed the back-end was involved. I showed you it wasn't, you changed tacks.

Forget it, dude. Once again, a thread has boiled down to MS-only people trying to sell *me* on MS solutions, while everyone else has abandoned the thread.

Ya'll haven't sold anyone else, either.

I'm the only one left willing to even talk to ya'll, it appears.

Unless you've got some new substance to add, I'm going to let this thread die.

He was clear, you didn't understand the conversation, and chose to criticize me because you don't like my opinion that there are better technologies out there.

Dude, you're such a goombah. I still say the back end was involved in the original 8 week production time, along with things like spec review and design which tends to drag things out a bit. And I still think it's incredibly rude to shave people's estimates on project you know nothing about.

I'm not selling anything. I haven't worked with .Net and since I think n-tiered distributed applications are annoying I hope I never do. You're the only one on these threads that ever tries to sell anything, and what you're trying to sell is your own brilliance which it turns out is the ultimate vaporware. If anybody says anything good about anything from MS you're all over them and accuse them of everything under the sun. You really need to ask your shrink why you have such a hard-on for MS. If you can't look at that list of companies using .Net and realize that the product is doing pretty good then you clearly have issues, deep expensive issues. That's nobody's problem but yours. I always worry about people that spend long hours complaining about everyone around them, especially when they're conservative, armed nutjobs are inherently more frightening than unarmed nutjobs.

This is precisely the reason I'd never hire you, Harr. You confuse writing the code with the entire application development process. Coding is one of the last things you do. In a lot of ways, it's the least important.

Forget it, dude. Once again, a thread has boiled down to MS-only people trying to sell *me* on MS solutions, while everyone else has abandoned the thread.

Nobody's trying to sell you anything, Harr. You're entrenched in your ignorance. No, most people are here to prevent you from spreading more lies and making estimates that pull out of your rear end...
